High school senior Alexis Zsamboran was devastated when she heard that Sweet Briar College was planning to close and join a long line of U.S. all-women's schools that have shut their doors. Thanks to a deal approved by a Virginia judge last month, Zsamboran will be among 300 women enrolled to start class at Sweet Briar in August. Last month Sweet Briar, best known for its equestrian program, won a reprieve when a judge approved a deal in which alumnae pumped millions of dollars into the school to keep it operating.
